A little maybe, but these are also slightly different angles which accentuate the nose in the second photo more. The Travis Bickle pic is shot from at or below the shoulder just a bit. The modern one is about ear level.
Edited for clarity.

Cartilage-filled areas like the ears and nose continue to grow throughout your life, so OP is accurate.

Yeah, tossing maybe in there was a poor word choice. I was just trying to point out that the subtle difference in the camera angles was also a factor. I've edited. Thanks!

The article you linked says they appear to grow, but is less clear about how much they actually do. It also says:
>Our ears are 90 percent grown by age six, and our noses are almost fully grown by the time we’re teens, but both can change shape and appear to enlarge as we age.
