Does it matter whether Biden drops out of his own accord or not? Can't the DNC just nominate someone else regardless of what Biden wants?

When you say “DNC” do you mean the Committee or the Convention. If the former, then no, if the latter then yes but they won’t. Someone within the Biden camp would need to convince him to step down.

By convincing him they are effectively talking themselves out of a job; success or failure.

Well, so if DNC is "Democratic National Committee" then they've got no say in it whatsoever. May as well ask the RNC to boot Trump. If it's "Democratic National Convention" (i.e. the delegates should pick someone else) then that makes a bit more sense, but here "delegates" mean the absolutely most committed Biden volunteers, etc... who were selected during the primaries. Biden's got like 3,200 to the closest other Dem candidate who has like 20. There've been contested nominations on the floor before, but that's not really an option with those counts.
