You can export the contacts from your phone to a csv file on your SD Card, from there copy it to your PC/upload to dropbox for safe keeping.

As long as you've a copy somewhere safe, you're free to delete the stuff you don't need.
 
1. Open the People App
2. Press the Menu button in the top right
3. Manage Contacts
4. Import/Export Contacts
5. Export to Phone Storage
6. Select the Account you want to Export
7. It will then export a vcf file to your SD Card
8. Copy that to your PC or Upload to your dropbox account (if you have one).
