Wading in here because I've got a lot of time in using REW, tuning for an unmovable MLP, multiple subs, et al...
1. Close mic measurements: No, the nulls and peaks will not show on close-mic measurements, because taking the measurement that close removes the effect of room interactions. This is the standard mic placement behavior when recording guitars, bass, etc... mic the speakers in the guitar/bass cabinet super close, get the room out of the frequency and time behavior as much as possible.
2. The null always being there regardless of receiver, processor, amp, whatever... Your main listening position (MLP) is sitting in a null for those frequencies. I think you mentioned your MLP is against a wall? You also mentioned your speaker placement is kind of set in stone? I am in that club. Check out the following three images:

The first pic is measured from my MLP, center of my couch. Second shot is the left seat on my couch. Third seat is the right seat on my couch. I have two SVS SB3000's flanking the console that holds my television and front 3 speakers.
Please notice the nulls that happen from each position between 100hz and 153hz. Notice how each seat sees different null behavior. The exception is the 153hz null. That null encompasses my ENTIRE COUCH and I cannot get rid of that because MLP cannot change, speaker location cannot change, subwoofer location cannot change. Regardless, the null patterns moving when you move the mic to any of the seats on my couch is the point. If you have mains speakers that stay in the same place every time, and an MLP that stays in the same place every time, no receiver, no amp, no EQ, is going to remove the null pattern measured at that MLP. Ever.
If you want the null to move or vanish, speakers have to move or listener has to move. But, as you move these things other nulls will show up. The only way to do that is to remove the room interaction via bass traps. Not broadband absorption. Bass traps. Midbass and bass frequencies bouncing off your walls from the fixed speaker position are interacting reflections from those walls with the direct sound that goes in a line from your speaker cones to your microphone. Some of that interaction is heavily out of phase with the direct sound. That's what causes the nulls. You have to live with some of them.
You may notice that my nulls aren't that bad. There's a reason for that. You say you have four subwoofers in the room controlled by a minidsp. I have one of those as well. Two input filter banks, 10 a side, then four output filter banks, 10 each. I am not sure how you have configured yours, but if it was by sub crawl and manual testing, I have a suggestion for you: https://www.andyc.diy-audio-engineer...tml/index.html
You will have to do some very tedious measurements from each of your subs, one at a time, with zero eq or processing of any kind from your receiver or processor. Once you have the measurements from your subs, in REW, you save those in a specific format that the instructions will tell you, and you load those into Multi Sub Optimizer. When you tell it to process them, it brute force checks level, phase and time interaction possibilities using all four of your subwoofers to get them, by themselves, to be as flat in your room as you want. Know ahead of time that because each of your speakers sees your room differently, each of your subs sees your room differently, that the configuration it generate will look possibly completely insane (-30db cuts in certain passbands, etc). Regardless of how crazy the config of each individual sub is... once you get a successful measurement, processing, and config pushed to your minidsp... your subs will be as flat as you can possibly get them in your room.
Prior to using that tool I had a massive room null at MLP at 17.7hz. Prior to using that tool, every null you see on those pictures between 100hz and 153hz was utterly massive. Use the sub optimizer, get your 4-sub-config perfect, then re-visit your whole room measurements, and perhaps give the room correction another try.
This is my MLP full range:

Sierra 1's, dual SB3000's. In my room, if I turn all room correction off and solo the L and R Sierras? Massive, massive bloom of bass between 32hz and 80. Peak on it is 10db. Some of that is the Sierras, some of that is my room. The subs see it as well.
You have all of the hardware. Now you just need to take the step to tune the room.
Oh, and this site is quite technical, but if you want to learn exactly where your nulls are in your room: https://amcoustics.com/tools/amroc?l...t=true&r60=0.6
