Consider the following example:
\documentclass[a4paper]{article}
\title{A Paper}
\author{\begin{tabular}{l@{\ }l}
Advisor: "Name of Advisor"
Candidate: "My Name"
\end{tabular}}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
Given in this paper ...
\end{document}
My question is how to make the two colons right after "Advisor" and "Candidate" be on the same line?

I am not sure whether this meant at all.
Please note, that journals have their own guidelines for typesetting/alignment of the names of authors.
The
@{\ }
is not useful at all, the first column is requested to be right justified, so use ar
column specifier.
