You're wondering about how your OEM license behaves when you switch from Windows to macOS. Since the laptop came pre-installed with Windows and an OEM license, activating macOS might require you to wipe the Windows files using disk utility. Once you repartition the drive, you can reinstall Windows. Regarding the OEM license, it should remain valid unless you manually deactivate or remove it during the activation process. It won't vanish completely unless you specifically cancel it before activation.
