Hello @Massimiliano,
For groups I am not so sure if they are not shared with the new infrastructure. To verify that, please add a test account to ADSyncBrowse and try to open AADConnect console with that account. If there would be an error, then group is not used by AADConnect and you can remove it.
So what you should do:
1. Create a test account
2. Add test account to ADSyncAdmins or ADSyncBrowse
3. Try to log in to AADConnect server and AADConnect console with test account.
4. If that works, group is still used. If that won't work, you should be safe to remove the groups.
5. You can do additional test as well by removing one of existing members from ADSyncAdmins (to be 100% sure).
Best,
Dominik
