yes you can delete windows 8 but before doing that install boot loader of windows 7 again, the proceedure will be this

1) install boot loader of windows 7 by booting with windows 7 install disc or USB.
2) go to Control panel > Administrative tools > computer management
3) now click on Disk management in left pane under storage and then delete the windows 8 partition or reformat it.

and you’re done :)
