Assuming that by “iCloud Account” you really mean “AppleID”


… the no-longer-needed AppleID can be deactivated - or permanently deleted - by logging in (with the AppleID to be deleted) at: https://privacy.apple.com/


If you choose “delete” pay VERY close attention to the warnings as deletion is irreversible and there is a very real risk of “activation locking” yourself out of your own devices.
