Deleting an IMAP account on one Mac. Will it affect my laptop with same account?

I set up the same IMAP account on two Apple Mail programs: one on my laptop, the other on my iMac. I want to remove or disable the account on my iMac, but will either removing it completely or disabling it affect how my account runs on my laptop? Will I still be able to send and receive emails on my laptop if I delete the account on my Mac?

FYI, the account was set up on my laptop before setting it upon my iMac.

Thank you!
