As of 2009, four individuals have won a Nobel prize twice: Marie Curie (physics 1903, chemistry 1911), Linus Pauling (chemistry 1954, peace 1962), John Bardeen (physics 1956, physics 1972), Frederick Sanger (chemistry 1958, chemistry 1980). The only one of the four who was awarded both prizes as a solo recipient was Linus Pauling. If you want to count groups also, the International Committee of the Red Cross has been awarded the Peace prize three times (1917, 1944, 1963). Also, the Peace prize has twice been awarded (1954, 1981) to the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, though that office was not held by the same person both times.

Yes, individuals can win the Nobel Prize more than once in their lifetime. There have been instances where laureates have received the Nobel Prize in different categories or have shared the prize with others in the same category.

Marie Curie won the Nobel prize twice. She shared the Nobel prize for Physics with her daughter Irene Joliot-Curie and son-in-law Frederic Joliot-Curie and was the sole winner of the Nobel prize in chemistry. She was the 1st woman to win the Nobel prize and was the only woman to win the award in 2 separate fields.

Why weren't Watson and crick awarded the Nobel prize immediately?

Watson and Crick were not awarded the Nobel Prize immediately because the Nobel Committee does not typically award prizes posthumously, and Watson and Crick's colleague, Rosalind Franklin, whose work was crucial to their discovery, had died in 1958. Additionally, at the time of the discovery of the DNA double helix structure, the Nobel Prize guidelines did not allow more than three people to share a single prize.
