No, there is actually no way to delete any information from the server. What
happens when you commit is that a new revision will be created on the server
and that revision will not include the files you scheduled for deletion.
Someone checking out the latest version will not receive those files then,
though someone checking out an earlier version can still retrieve them.

You can just delete your working copy. Actually, you should reread the
Subversion book; It would then be clear to you that the WC is just scrap
space which you use to temporarily store modifications before committing them
but which can otherwise be deleted/copied/renamed at will.
