If I have an open SSH session in a server, and I am browsing a particular directory, and another user tries to delete the directory I am in, does the delete folder fail?
I am assuming yes, but the files inside the directory get deleted. I think I am also confusing file handle with something else, but any advisory is appreciated.

What do you mean by 'browsing'? I have opened 2 terminals. In one I didcd a, in the second I didrm -r a: no problem, a was removed.

does the delete folder fail
No. Deleting is the removal of the link from the directory above + removal of the link to ".." and to ".". The directory itself remains if there are process active, or it is a current working directory.
Whenever you try to do something in that directory you will get an error notice. ls, rm, cd will all fail if done to something inside that, now deleted, location.
