Yes, you can delete it... using IEFBR14
//JOB1 JOB NOTIFY=&SYSUT1
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=IEFBR14
//DD1 DD DSN=ISAM12.CLASS.PGM12,DISP=(MOD,DEL,DEL),UNIT=3390
//SYSIN DD DUMMY
//
But IEBGENER is used to concatenate a dataset / edit / copy

Answer / biswaranjan
Its possible.But 1st you have to delete the dataset and
recreate a empty dataset with the same name.
//XXXXXXXX JOB TEST,'SORT',
// MSGCLASS=X,
// CLASS=C,NOTIFY=&SYSUID
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=IEFBR14
//DD1 DD DSN=XXXXXXX.WORK.TEST,DISP=(MOD,DELETE,DELETE)
//SYSIN DD DUMMY
//STEP2 EXEC PGM=IEFBR14
//DD1 DD DSN=XXXXXXX.WORK.TEST,DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE)
//SYSIN DD DUMMY
//
