That's dangerous - some packages that do *not* depend on tetex-base also put files into /usr/share/texmf; for sure it's texinfo, but there might be others. After purging tetex-base, you can test which files are registered to dpkg by running dpkg -S usr/share/texmf and you can safely remove all files and directories that exist, but are not in this list.
