I have many lxc containers and 2 VMs on proxmox. I want clean all to remove all files like when i startup proxmox by first time. Its possible?
 
You could take a snapshots of each VM/LXC at the state you want them to restore to and write a shell script that is run at each boot and will roll them back to that snapshot.

Shouldn't be that hard to do. You should take a look at the proxmox documentation. You could use pct rollback <vmid> <snapname> and qm rollback <vmid> <snapname> in that script.

I am starting my machine configuration, maybe i have to reinstall proxmox from USB pen to have a clean system and after, create my LXC. Like Windows format, there isnt a similar option on Proxmox?
 
Ah, you just want to wipe your disks.

You can use fdisk, parted, dd or wipefs commands in CLI to remove all partitions and reset the partition table.
