You can if you wish, however it isn't necessary to do so.  Up2date uses
that directory to store update packages while installing, and the newer
files will be written there when you next run up2date.  I think you can
tell the up2date config file, /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date to delete them
after installing, but you have plenty of unused disk in /var/spool.
