Yes! There are a number of reasons for having an adult Bar Mitzvah - you may not have celebrated it when you were a child, you may have converted in later years, or you may have experienced a spiritual awakening, and you want to mark your commitment to the Jewish people again - as a mature adult. You can have a bar/bat mitzvah at any age, although there is a custom to have a second bar mitzvah at age 73.

For girls, a bat mitzvah.

Traditionally, the bat miztvah has been celebrated when the girl is 12 and the bar mitzvah when the boy is 13 - however, it's now common for those communities that celebrate the bat mitzvah (it's a relatively new concept) to celebrate it when the girl is 13.
