'What would happen if I uninstall python, would my python project still work?
Let's say I created a django project with the help of virtualenv and I named my virtualenv venv, If I uninstall python from my system can I still use my project with the help of that venv?

No. It would not work.
Python is an "interpreted" language. Python scripts need the Python interpreter to run as well as its "standard library and other key files".
Although there is a python or python.exe executable binary in a Python virtual environment, it is not a self-sufficient standalone Python interpreter. It still needs the original Python interpreter used to create the virtual environment, or actually, if I am not mistaken, it needs access to "the standard library and other key files" of the original Python interpreter.
