I guess you can use:

$new_html = preg_replace('%<tag>.*?</tag> ?%si', '', $old_html);

If you do not want to use DOM, you could always use preg_replace to do this.

$content = 'hello Rose <tag> Micheal </tag> and <tag> July </tag> John.';

$content = preg_replace('/<tag>[^<]+<\/tag>/i', '', $content);

print $content; // returns: hello Rose and John.
