Yes.

Nginx will obey the Cache-Control/Expire headers. It won't delete, but it
will refresh the files so that the served content is fresh.
So it is as if the files were deleted. AFAIK deletion happens more often
when the file is not accessed for given time specified through the inactive
parameter of the proxy_cache_path/fastcgi_cache_path directives.
