  a) You can’t create dropdowns in the sidebar, even if you use a Text widget.
  b) Using Text widgets is neither the only nor the easiest way to create two category lists. You can create two custom menus in Appearance > Menus, then add two Custom Menu widgets. But again they won’t be dropdowns.
  For details on custom menus see this post of mine:
