Yes, you can format your drive and wipe it clean.
But, Read this first. Installation is not like winme upgrade, you need to do
some prep work first.

You can do a clean install with an XP upgrade disk as long as you have
the Me disk. You'll be prompted during the install process to insert
the Me disk for validation.
