The first one mean if you are 20, your sister is 25. The second one is if you are 20 your sister is 15. The grammar is a bit off
1. I have a sister who is five years older than me.
2. I have a sister who is five years younger than me.

yup, not with those. If you do not want to use who is, you can say this instead:
My sister is 5 years older than me. **than me** is optional here
My sister is 5 years younger than me.
