You cannot, the closest you can get is https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/5.0/docs-delete-by-query.html

And sometimes when you don't have important data (well when you just start to play with elasticsearch) it's better to remove the full index.

If you want to delete a type because you want to change the mapping, this will not work.
If you just want to reindex old data using the same mapping then you don't need to remove old data before that as long as you are using the same I'd.

If you explain a bit more what you are trying to solve here we can give you the best solution for it.
