Can we ask someone "how many years gap is there between you and your siblings?" Or "how many years gap is there between you and your sister?"
 
What is the age difference between ...
 
Or What's the age gap between....


However, I think this one is more used when there is a big age difference.

Use the suggestions from your other responses. These sentences don't work.

There's a logic error in the first sentence. Unless your siblings are twins or triplets, there are at least two age differences between you and them. So it would be more logical to ask "What are the age differences". Other than that, both questions are okay.

Here's another way to put the idea:

"How many years apart are you and your sister?"
