There might be different answers for different products.

For Google Workspace, I found this answer: https://support.google.com/a/thread/129037623?hl=en&msgid=129046776

Q: Is it ok to delete TXT records after verification?

A: Yes. The record was just used to validate ownership and control of the DNS settings.

For Google WebMaster tools, there's this: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/9008080

Which says:

Important: To stay verified, don't remove the DNS record from your provider, even after verification succeeds.
