Hello aspirant,
Hope you are doing absolutely great.
So with regard to your query, NO you cannot give the UPSC exam 2023. Because as per the eligibility criteria provided by UPSC, a candidate must be between the age of 21 to 32 years. And they must be born between 2 August 1991 to 1 August 2002. As you born before 2 August 1991 you are not eligible for the exam. This is for the year 2022.
The notification for 2023 is not yet released. But there will be some kind of age relaxation for Scheduled Castes and Tribes category i.e. they will be getting 5 years of age relaxation for this purpose. And also to the candidates belonging to OBC also gets three years of age relaxation. Further, if you belong to any of these categories then you might get age relaxation and write the exam. However, if you are from general category, then you won't get any kind of relaxation.

Hope this helps you,
Thank you.
