No. If you delete the cloud version it will normally delete versions everywhere as it's all in sync.
Not sure why you object to the cloud backup If you switch phones, phone breaks, gets lost etc. you can easily restore your photos. Without cloud backup (unless you're doing it some other way) then it'll all be lost.

Camera photos are auto uploaded to Google Photos (you can turn this off if you want via phone settings on the google account options). You can remove files from Google Photos and they will remain on your phone. It used to be a 2-way synch but Google stopped this some time ago. Google Drive will delete cloud and desktop files if they are synched.The google storage is just backups right?Thanks.
