I have done this with BootIt NG.

I split up a 20 GB drive to install xp and linux on it to dick around with it. I decided to dedicate a small drive to linux afterwards and deleted the linux partition and deleted the partition.

I had to format the linux side of the drive effectively deleting the partition. Then I used the "resize" command to add all the extra space to the xp partition.

It didn't cause any problems as far as I could tell and if a freeware program like BootIt can do it, I don't see why Partition Magic couldn't as well.
