 The delete command will remove the cert from the server along with the assoicated letsencrypt files for that certificate.  

 # certbot delete --cert-name certtoremove.tld 
  OR 
  just run
  
 # certbot delete

 Running certbot delete with no options leads to a nice numbered list of all certificates .
 Choose the certs to be removed by number ( comma or space separated ) but note - blank answer will remove all certs supposedly so be careful.

 In order to prevent renewals yet retain the certificate and files simmply 
 rename or move the single relevant file in /etc/letsencrypt/renewal/ for that certificate

 ie. 
 mv /etc/letsencrypt/renewal/oldcertdomain.tld.conf /etc/letsencrypt/renewal/oldcertdomain.tld.txt
