I don't believe you can show realtime without refreshing the page and even then it is not really real time it becomes history from the refresh.
One thing of note, the way you are updating the time is by a scheduled task every 1 minute? Wouldn't it be easier to update the tables and times when someone actually places a bid and do it on the fly instead of a having a process run every minute even if it doesn't need to? Say I place a bid with 1 minute left, you update the system with my bid and then fire off a query that updates the auction item's time to 5 minutes from now().
