It might be, but you have not given us any context to frame the question, so we do not know what you are asking about.

Use this once = use this thing one time

Delete the other once = Delete this thing one time (this probably doesn't make sense)

Use these ones = use these things over here.

Delete the other ones = delete the other things over there.

I think your second combination is the only one that makes any sense, although you can just say "Use these and delete the other ones."
