Can I get a phd in robotics and theoretical physics before getting old?

I am passionate in both of them but I don’t want to be 90 by the time I get the phds. How long would it take me?

A double PhD? Figure 4 years for a BS, then another 4-5 for each PhD. You might be able to condense that somehow by combining the two fields into your doctoral research, or getting the BS in robotics (or physics) and then doing the doctorate in the other field. Good luck to you, though. If it’s something you’re truly passionate about, you’ll find a way.
Apply to grad school program, robotics or theortical physics. you do not need 2 Ph.Ds. Get into one program and do thesis research, which applies both robotics and theoretical physics. Ph.D. normally takes 5 years and above. You will get kicked out from the program if one Ph.D. program takes you more than 10 years (May be there are a few exception that I do not know of)
It’s possible, but you should first decide why you want to do this. You won’t be using both in any non-academic job I can think of, so worry about both degrees? You can pursue a career in one while learning the other on the side. It would be hard to get a job as a theoretical physicist without a PhD, so I’d suggest getting that degree and doing other work in robotics. Maybe you could get a master’s degree in robotics? You don’t need really need a PhD in engineering unless you want to be a professor, and any semi-related PhD (e.g. theoretical physics) would probably be enough to let you teach robotics. (I’m an experimental physicist, by the way.)
