Is there any way to take knight and save rook at same time?
Please do tell name, so I can search on YouTube.

Since he answered the basic question about the name, I would not normally, but there is an additional part to the question, so I am going to add that 2...f6? is virtually a forced loss, no matter how you play it, and here is the analysis. So, no you cannot take the knight, and save the rook, or worse happens.

The opening you are after is Damiano Defense: 1.e5 e4 2.Nf3 f6
.
Note that after 3. Nxf3 fe?
is a mistake, 3...Qe7
keeps the material equal. There is no way to take the knight and save the rook as far as I know.
The knight is not sacrificed. If black takes it then he will regret it. The best is to lose the rook and have a bad position.
To answer the other half of your question: Ke7 saves the rook but leads to a terrible position.
After QxP+, black has to play Kf7, then white moves Bc4+. It's all downhill from there until Black is mated.
