I have a RAID 10 array with 3 subgroups of drives in RAID 1, like in the image below

Raid 10

Is it possible to remove an entire subgroup (2 disks) without losing the entire Array? The RAID 10 will work normally with only 4 disks?

If it is possible, how do i do it? I use a PowerEdge R710

No - in a RAID 10, removing any subgroup of disks will cause the destruction of the RAID0. If you had a RAID 01 - yes, you could remove one of the subgroup RAID 0s without problem.
