Now Hawking can get a Noble Prize posthumously.

“Now Hawking can get a Noble Prize posthumously.”

Nope. Noble Prize is never awarded posthumously.
Henry Moseley was supposed to get a Nobel Prize for correcting Dmitri Mendeleev periodic table by ordering it according to atomic number instead of mass and also for inventing the first working atomic battery. Moseley was killed by a Turkish sniper at the Battle of Gallipoli. Moseley was nominated for the 1916 Nobel Prize in Physics, which was not awarded to anyone that year, because of Modeley’s death.

Noble Prizes aren't given posthumously.
