If you upgrade from F19 to F20 dnf will not be installed, so I see no harm in removing it from F20.

yum is the main tool to use, dnf is installed to be tested.

As a matter of curiosity...

Is it OK to remove yum with dnf ? will it cause any problems ?

As far as I know yum cannot be removed. And dnf uses yum configuration files in addition to its own, at least when I enabled updates-testing for yum, it was made active for dnf as well.

The repositiory files, including the one defining updates-testing, aren't part of yum. I haven't tried it but I think it would be possible to remove yum and its dependants without causing too many problems, though it would remove PackageKit so you would have to keep your system up to date manually.
