Well photosynthesis stops at night but metabolic activity doesn't, so presumably they consume oxygen. No idea how much though.

Plants consume CO2 and ‘exhale’ oxygen. They don’t consume it.

Plants do release a bit of CO2 during the night due to respiration, they need sunlight for photosynthesis to occur.
