Sure, you can do that. As I said, there's no particular trick for deleting the uninstaller. The filesystem won't stop you from deleting your own binary (or moving it to the trash.)
The filesystem doesn't care, but the OS sure as heck does. Launch
Services and CoreServices both freak out if a running app goes
bye-bye—to the Trash or anywhere else.
Could you define "freak out" in this context? I haven't noticed any
problem with moving a running app to the trash just before quitting it.
