i know my crank shaft position sensor is bad. Now my car is knocking. Mechanic says he did compression test. Says better look for new motor. But want advice. Can the cause of the knocking be related to the bad sensor

is it a mechanical knock? I would say it is unlikely that a bad crankshaft sensor is creating an engine knock. Unless it is skewing the timing and you are hearing engine detonation. Still, that would be a stretch.
