Can the Age of Worms adventure path be stretched over many years? I mean, I am one of those who are irked by the fact that 21 year-olds are 18th level and such. A campaign bringing a character from 1st to 20th level usually takes about 10-20 years in my campaigns, is this possible in Age of Worms?

Age of Worms will certainly have a more forgiving timeline than Shackled City, but I'm not sure that stretching it out over several decades would help it; but then, I'm one of those who don't mind the fact that certain unique individuals (the PCs) can rise rapidly to great heights of power over a short period of time.
The main thing you'll need to consider if you stretch out the timeline is the fact that the looming menace of the coming Age of Worms becomes less of an immediate threat looming on the horizon.
Looking over the schedule of adventures, it looks like there are actually several points that could accomidate a several-year gap. What the PCs do in that gap is up to you. And to the PCs, of course.
Yeah, I wasn't necessarily thinking 1 year between each module, but maybe more like a Star Wars thingy, dividing the series up into three "periods" so to speak. We'll see how it goes, I probably won't start playing until at least a few installments have come out.
