I looked it up out of curiosity.

Marie Skłodowska Curie, Physics 1903 and Chemistry 1911
Linus Pauling, Chemistry 1954 and Peace 1962
John Bardeen, Physics 1956 and Physics 1972
Frederick Sanger, Chemistry 1958 and Chemistry 1980

The oldest person to win a noble prize was John B. Goodenough who won in 2019 the chemistry prize at age 97.
The youngest was Malala Yousafzai who won the peace prize at age 17.
