Is there a way to calculate the age given the 2 dates in the standard format
yyyy-mm-dd? I could do julianday('now') - julianday(dateofbirth) and divide
by 365, but that won't be accurate enough.
It would be easy to calculate the age in the application and update the
database, but I prefer to do it all in SQL if I can.

Try this (untested).
select
case
when date(dob, '+' ||
strftime('%Y', 'now') - strftime('%Y', dob) ||
' years') >= date('now')
then strftime('%Y', 'now') - strftime('%Y', dob)
else strftime('%Y', 'now') - strftime('%Y', dob) - 1
end
as age
from t;
