By uninstall do you mean that you want the computer to have no Operating System?
If that is the case then no, you do not need the CD or Key to remove windows. Although you will have to have them to reinstall at a later time.

You don't need any disc or key to uninstall it...you can format or fdisk the system.

If you want to then reinstall, however, you will likely need these things (unless you have, for example, a ghost image).

If you're going to install a new OS, then you just need any media, image, COA, etc that it requires.

If you give a little more information about what you're really trying to do, we can help a lot more.

Good luck!
