Yoga exercises promote increasing the area between the vertebrae, and could, I suppose, result in a slightly taller stature, as the bones are moved more into alignment and the vertebrae are not squashed on top of each other, but are more flexible and healthier.
In your case, though, just be patient. You have quite a few years of growing yet to do, and you will become taller over time. Just eat healthy, make sure you are getting plenty of nutrients (try to make junk food a rare thing) and your body is more likely to grow well. It’s true what mom and dad say about eating your veggies, they will make you grow big and strong! Honestly. It is what you put into your body to help it grow that makes it be it’s best.
Think of plants – if you just water one in plain potting soil, it grows, sure, but if you give another one nutrient rich compost, it’s going to grow twice as much and twice as healthy (if not more) than the one in regular dirt with only water.
Think of your body as a plant needing rich nutrients to help it grow. Feed it what it needs, get used to always eating healthy (fruits, veggies, whole grains, legumes, lower fat, rare junk food) and you will look and feel better with more energy, and your body can grow right.
Take care of yourself, and yeah, yoga is still a great thing to do for yourself, most practice an hour a day, but you can still gain benefits from maybe 2 or 3 hrs a week. (every other day for example).
Good luck!

If you’re only 13, then you’re most likely not done growing yet, so a combination of yoga (or really any exercise) and eating lots of healthy food could help you to get taller. If you were 20 years older, though, you’d probably be out of luck. You should try to exercise for at least 30 minutes at least 3 times a week.

you're only 13; you definitely have years of growing to do.
