So long as you are pretty sure you don't need them yes you could no
problem.  Your main nagios config will be what's under /etc/nagios so
if you have set up anything you want to keep you might want to take a
backup of that.

I would think the Fedora quick start would be pretty similar to Centos
so in the official docs see
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/quickstart-fedora.html

Alternatively, google for a Centos-specific guide for example:
http://www.kernelhardware.org/install-nagios-on-centos-5/
