It is a little deceiving to talk about changing the size (volume) of a container, as opposed to changing the volume of the reaction. If all you do is change the volume of the container but not the volume of reaction, then the reaction rate should not be affected, since you have no gases present and pressure affects the rate of reaction for gases under certain circumstances.
So, as the question is presently posed, the answer would be no, this should not affect the rate of reaction.
