You cannot remove the kernel you are currently using. To remove it, you need to reboot and select a different kernel to boot with.

You can have multiple kernels installed, but you can only run one kernel at a time.

When you boot the computer, the very first screen is called the Grub menu. This menu allows you to choose operating systems but you can also use it to select a kernel.

If you only have one operating system installed, your boot sequence might skip the Grub menu. To force the Grub menu to show, boot the computer and keep pressing the left <key>Shift</key> key.

To select a kernel, choose "Advanced options" in the Grub menu. You should see all the kernels currently installed. Select the one you want to use and your computer will boot with that one.

The kernel includes all open source drivers and these usually work very well. Proprietary drivers (NVIDIA, AMD, Broadcom...etc) are not included and they need to compile themselves against every kernel you install. This is done via a mechanism called DKMS.
