AFAIK, there's no official dark mode provided by LibreOffice. You can make your own: Tools > Options > Libreoffice > Application Colors.

Or use pre-installed ones:
options / libreoffice / personalization

They actually do anything? I tried them, bud couldn't see any difference - they don't affect menus and dialogues which follow workspace settings (and so in my case are dark), they don't affect document looks either.

At least in GNOME, LibreOffice honors the GNOME theme selected via GNOME Tweaks. Launch gnome-tweaks and select a dark theme in Appearance>Themes>Applications (provided you have any such theme installed). I've just tried it with Adapta-Nokto, Adwaita-dark and Arc-Dark: they all work as expected.

Obviously, this change would render all conform applications in dark tones, not only LibreOffice. This may not be what you want.
