What makes you think that you will need to breathe in heaven?
The breath of life, the use of oxygen by the blood because the life is in the blood, was given to Adam so that he would live on earth as a living soul here.
Or so I understand.

I very much doubt that this was a real question. Seems more like trolling to me but....
Jesus was resurrected with a glorified human body, complete with the scares acquired during the crucifixion and there is good biblical evidence that we too will receive such a body. The possession of a physical body seems to at least imply biological processes. Jesus ate with the Apostles, for example, and there is the presence of the Tree of Life in Heaven which brings only one of twelve fruits ripe each month (so much for there being no time in heaven!) and other clear indications that we will regularly eat in Heaven. In addition to that, there will be a new Earth, with cities and homes and all kinds of activity. All indications are that it will be a restored but world-wide Eden where there will be all sorts of various kinds of biological life. Why wouldn't there be oxygen?
The question is whether doing so (i.e. eating, breathing, etc) will be necessary in the way it is now. I very much doubt it, but who cares if it is? Is God not permitted to make Heaven in any manner He sees fit?

Weren’t Enoch and Elijah both sent to heaven alive?

ENTERING HEAVEN
When we arrived there, two very tall angels were standing outside the gate. Both of them wore glistening robes and had swords in their hands. Their hair was like spun gold, and their faces gleamed with light. The angel accompanying me moved over to speak to the two angels guarding the gate, and I was left standing alone. In amazement, I thought, “Oh, how glorious are the gates of heaven! How wonderful it is to see this one for myself!" Suddenly, I realized that I was actually going to enter into heaven. As I watched the angels of the Lord, I could hear some of the conversation they were having. One of them went inside the gate and returned almost immediately with a small volume. The book had a gold cover, and the printing inside was also in gold. It seemed to be a book about my life’s history. My name was stamped on the cover:
A smile of approval came over the angels’ faces. They opened the book. They looked at each other, then said in a voice I could hear, “You may come inside the gate."
My guiding angel escorted me through the magnificent gate and into heaven. Suddenly, music filled the whole atmosphere. It was all around me. It was above me. It seemed to penetrate my very being. Wave after powerful wave of beautiful music and singing surged across the landscape and seemed to envelop everything and everyone. When I stepped inside the city, amazement again took my breath. The landscape of that in comparable city was beyond description. Surrounding me were the most beautiful, colorful flowers I had ever seen. There was unbelievable greenery and vegetation everywhere. Even the blooms of the flowers seemed to be alive to the music and the singing.
Music continued to swirl about me. I seemed to be a part of it.
It is one thing to try to describe the wonders of this city; it is quite another to know that you will share the joy of it.
I saw some of the exuberant citizens of heaven, and they were all dressed in robes. This Scripture came to me:
I will greatly rejoice in the LORD; my soul shall be joyful in my God; for He has clothed me with the garments of salvation, He has covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decks himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels, (Isaiah 61:10)
The happiness and joy that beamed from their faces was beyond compare. Heaven is a real place. It is not a figment of someone’s imagination. In the Bible it is re corded that Jesus said, Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. In
My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told
you. I go to prepare a place for you.
(John 14:1—2)
Heaven is a prepared place for a prepared people. Since we as children of God have been transformed and made new by the miracle of regeneration, and since we are now new creations in Christ, it is a joy to know that the place where we will spend eternity is prepared by the Savior who saved us.
Heaven is a perfect place. Since our Savior is perfect, omnipotent, and eternal, heaven has to be a perfect place. Because He is preparing us a place there to live with Him for all eternity, our eternal home will be perfect, too. Nothing will ever mar any part of that heavenly abode. There will never be anything allowed to enter heaven to defile it or spoil it.
But there shall by no means enter it anything that defiles, or causes an abomination or a lie, but only those who are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life. (Revelation 21:27)
Heaven is beyond the reach of sin and sinners of every kind and description. Satan will be forever barred from that heavenly place:
And another sign appeared in heaven: behold, a great, fiery red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and seven diadems on his heads. His tail drew a third of the stars [ angelic hosts] of heaven and threw them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was ready to give birth, to devour her Child as soon as it was born.war broke out in heaven: Michael and his angels fought with the dragon;and the dragon and his angels fought, but they did not prevail, nor was a place found for them in heaven any longer. So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, “Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down. “Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them! Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and the sea! For the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, because he knows that he has a short time."
Now when the dragon saw that he had been cast to the earth, he persecuted the woman who gave birth to the male Child.(Revelation 12:3—4, 7—10, 12—13)
That serpent, Satan, and his unholy cohorts will never again rear their ugly heads in the pure and holy climate of heaven!
The demons cannot enter heaven.
The fallen angels who rebelled against God and “who did not keep their proper domain, but left their own abode" (Jude 1:6) cannot return to
heaven.
Nothing will be lacking in heaven. No detail will be left out to keep its environment from being perfect.
No matter where we go on earth, no matter where we live or how expensive our homes may be, there are obvious faults and flaws to keep them from being perfect. In contrast, God has made no mistakes in constructing the place called heaven. Its glories, its beauties, its wonders are beyond human powers of description. The indescribable splendor of that beautiful place is wondrous to behold.
The combined brilliance of the light of the Son of God reflecting on walls of jasper, gates of pearl, mansions unnumbered, and the beautiful River of Life creates a scene no artist could ever adequately depict.

Yeah, that's something to consider.
One taken up by a whirlwind and the other simply just sort of disappearing as he walked with God.
Neither of them is referred to anywhere as having died (as far as I know). Some speculate about them becoming the two witnesses of the end time because of this.

Enoch and Elijah had to have been translated into their spiritual bodies, that is, their physical bodies filled and fitted by the Holy Spirit, like the ones we will have in our resurrection, when God took them into heaven:
1Co 15:42 So is it with the resurrection of the dead. What is sown is perishable; what is raised is imperishable.
1Co 15:43 It is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness; it is raised in power.
1Co 15:44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body.
1Co 15:45 Thus it is written, “The first man Adam became a living being”; the last Adam became a life-giving spirit.
1Co 15:46 But it is not the spiritual that is first but the natural, and then the spiritual.
On the one hand, will our souls need to breathe air in heaven after we die? No, because we won't have our bodies.
Will we breathe oxygen on the new earth, our final home, in our resurrection bodies? I don't know, because the Bible doesn't say.
