Hi

Yes, the Win 7 firewall is an internal function which would still be available even if the McAfee would be uninstalled.
You can also enable or disable Win 7 firewall following way:

1. Open Windows Firewall by clicking the Start button , clicking Control Panel, clicking Security, and then clicking Windows Firewall.

2. Click Turn Windows Firewall on or off.
If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

3. Click On (recommended), and then click OK.
