Do Promethean Knights retain the memories of their previous existence or is it all wiped when being composed?

Retained. Of course their ability to express them is obviously dependant on whether or not their essences are modified in anyway.

So, why do the Knights in Spartan Ops fight against the Spartans, when most of them were composed civilians?

The Ur-Didact turned to humanity for the basis of his Promethean army because of our tremendous instinct for war, we can assume that the captured essences are altered to exploit that.

Well, in relation to what I said earlier, some modifications to the imprints were made. In the case of the Knights. More hostile and aggressive.
