Pahan, In order to remove the listeners in the content script based on some action in the popup page you will need to use Message Passing to notify the content script and then use the native removeEventListener function. With a "simple one-time request" should be enough (http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/messaging.html#simple)
If the keyboard shortcut is triggered inside the popup window you will need the same kind of communication. If it's triggered in the main web page then you can handle everything directly from the content script.
