I plan to go both Knight and Xbows after a 27+2 population age up.
The problem is the gold they take, so how should I allocate my current villagers to execute such a comp?

Here you can play around which units you want to make and can see how many vils you need on what resources to afford everything.
You cant sustain such an expensive army comp with FC
Then how do I get to this expensive army comp if I were to sustain myself?
You kind of don’t do so immediately. You probably open normally, and then maybe play your expansive comp once you actually have the eco to do so properly. Beelining for it will put you in a position where it’s not going to be viable. You should just be able to reach it semi-naturally after you’ve done sufficient macro.
What civ are you using ?
I never saw any such build order, it looks inefficient because you cannot afford to upgrade both units.
I suggest to go knights and only use crossbows as counter unit (no upgrade besides xbow itself):
