YES! And nail polish too. They should talk to you about all of that when they are getting you prepared for the surgery.
Good luck.

Most hospitals' policies require that patients remove all jewelry prior to surgery in the interest of the patients' safety. Depending on the location, jewelry may interfere with procedures. For example, oral and nasal jewelry can interfere with breathing apparatuses. Certain types of emergency equiptment such as the heart defibrillator can cause electrical burns if the patient is wearing or touching metal.

I don't think you have to remove your tongue piercing but unless if they say so, then I think you have to remove it but I don't think they will ask you to remove it anyways!!

yes they always ask you to remove everything from anywhere when having surgery, they should have given you a notice about it.
