The DB doesn't contain any historical data, this is all in the RRDs. This is why RRDs exist.
So the answer is no.
The D in RRD means database, and MRTG uses RRD. If you delete the RRDs from MRTG, you'll be just as screwed.

Dear Admin,
Unfortunately, I forgot to take the backup of the rrd directory but I did take the backup of the dumped mysql. Is there a way/queries to get the upload/download figures from the database?
Or is there a way like MRTG to get the graphs displayed by importing the dumped DB file to the new Observium system?
Regards
