Hi, not sure why you want to do that, but you won't lose your passwords etc. See under Remove user data and settings in Uninstall Firefox from your computer

Also see: Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data

If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.

No, your saved data isn't removed when Firefox is uninstalled, and when Firefox is re-installed it will use the existing saved data.
