Yes, although your terminology is wrong: it's not about "deleting"
commits; simply create a fresh root commit and rebase your work on top
of it. As an example, let's say you want to squash history from the
67afe1 (the old root) to 7ef42b on the master branch:
$ git checkout -b newroot 7ef42b
$ git reset 67afe1
$ git add .
$ git commit --amend
$ git checkout master
$ git rebase --onto newroot 7ef42b
