I just checked the dependencies and it looks like GWC is used by the
GeoPackage and MBTiles modules so if you are using either of those, you
probably need the GWC jars. Otherwise you are probably safe to remove
them. Running GeoServer without the embedded GWC isn't done very often,
but does happen and I'm not aware of any cases of it breaking anything.
Otherwise, yes, you can turn off each of the tile layers, and set GeoServer
to not create caches for any newly created layers.
