it should be fine but better ask more opinions from others to make sure
These files are generally safe to remove; they should rebuild themselves as they are needed. A completely safe way to clean a majority of these files up is to go to the concrete5 dashboard and clear the cache that way. It will most likely clear out most of these files.
I delete the entire cache folder, and it auto generates a new one upon refreshing.
Go for it, all safe to do so.
If you have any custom code storing objects in the cache, just remember they'll also vanish - but any code doing this should also be built to regenerate it if it cannot be found :)
