If the tyre has a tube in it won't be a tubeless valve as the valve will be part of the tube.

What kind of rims are on the wheels? If its got a tube fitted you will need to buy a valve to fit to the wheel to run it tubeless again. You may also need some sealant depending on the tyres you use.
Then you need to learn the patience required in inflating a tubless wheel / tyre ๐Ÿ˜ฎ
Theres a fair bit of info on the no tubes web site.

You'll need a UST valve set like this one.
