You can remove just the kernel without the deps with the above example but that won`t free up much space. You should carefully look trough the dependences that will be removed with the obsolete kernel if they are obsolete too(not required by any current service you use) you can safely remove them - BE VERY CAREFUL!
p.s. The kernel-2.6.32 is not the full name of the package use
# rpm -qa | grep kernel
to find the full name of the package and try rpm -e with the full name
Also usually if there is a lot of dependencies you`re trying to remove the current kernel

NAME
mk-build-deps - build a package satisfying a package's build-dependencies
SYNOPSIS
mk-build-deps --help|--version
mk-build-deps [options] control file | package name ...
DESCRIPTION
Given a package name and/or control file, mk-build-deps will use equivs to generate a binary package which may be installed to satisfy all
the build dependencies of the given package.
If --build-dep and/or --build-indep are given, then the resulting binary package(s) will depend solely on the
Build-Depends/Build-Depends-Indep dependencies, respectively.

Install the generated packages and its build-dependencies.
-t, --tool
When installing the generated package use the specified tool. (default: apt-get --no-install-recommends)
-r, --remove
Remove the package file after installing it. Ignored if used without the --install switch.
-a foo, --arch foo
If the source package has architecture-specific build dependencies, produce a package for architecture foo, not for the system
architecture. (If the source package does not have architecture-specific build dependencies, the package produced is always for the
pseudo-architecture all.)
-B, --build-dep
Generate a package which only depends on the source package's Build-Depends dependencies.
-A, --build-indep
Generate a package which only depends on the source package's Build-Depends-Indep dependencies.
