This is already done by Android, unless you disable Sync (for instance, by limiting syncs on mobile connections in the settings or energy-saving mode). Changes on your devices will be synced “immediately” = about 1 min after editing. It they are not, you have activated some kind of limit.

and it’d be nice if there were an option like “Sync/poll every x minutes”.For calendars, there’s a Refresh menu entry in the Calendar app that does exactly that by 1 click.
For address books, there’s no such thing in the default address book app, so it’s at the moment the only reason why you might sync using the Settings.
