This is answered in the FAQ: https://aprs.fi/page/faq but the short answer is no, you can't delete your historical data, jut just have to be patient and wait for it to go away.

I don't think so. Once they hit the internet they are there forever, or at least a couple months!

No, currently there is no method to do that.

APRS does not have any sort of authentication (anyone can send anything
using any callsign).

On the Internet it is also very difficult for you to prove, to a web site,
in an automated fashion, that you are the legitimate holder of a callsign.

Because aprs.fi does not know (for sure) who you are, or who actually sent
those packets, there is currently no method to delete them. Sorry.
