The list

There are 15 groups of order 24.

Group Second part of GAP ID (ID is (24,second part)) Nilpotency class Derived length
nontrivial semidirect product of Z3 and Z8 1 not nilpotent 2
cyclic group:Z24 2 1 1
special linear group:SL(2,3) 3 not nilpotent 3
dicyclic group:Dic24 4 not nilpotent 2
direct product of S3 and Z4 5 not nilpotent 2
dihedral group:D24 6 not nilpotent 2
direct product of Dic12 and Z2 7 not nilpotent 2
SmallGroup(24,8) 8 not nilpotent 2
direct product of Z6 and Z4 (also, direct product of Z12 and Z2) 9 1 1
direct product of D8 and Z3 10 2 2

Sylow subgroups

2-Sylow subgroups

Here is the occurrence summary:

Group of order 8 GAP ID (second part) Number of groups of order 24 in which it is a 2-Sylow subgroup List of these groups Second part of GAP IDs of these groups
cyclic group:Z8 1 2 nontrivial semidirect product of Z3 and Z8, cyclic group:Z24 1, 2
direct product of Z4 and Z2 2 3 direct product of S3 and Z4, direct product of Dic12 and Z2, direct product of Z6 and Z4 5, 7, 9
dihedral group:D8 3 4 dihedral group:D24, SmallGroup(24,8), direct product of D8 and Z3, symmetric group:S4 6, 8, 10, 12
quaternion group 4 3 special linear group:SL(2,3), dicyclic group:Dic24, direct product of Q8 and Z3 3, 4, 11
elementary abelian group:E8 5 3 direct product of A4 and Z2, direct product of D12 and Z2, direct product of E8 and Z3 13, 14, 15

Note that the number of 2-Sylow subgroups is either 1 or 3. The former happens if and only if we have a normal Sylow subgroup for the prime 2. The latter happens if and only if we have a self-normalizing Sylow subgroup for the prime 2.

direct product of E8 and Z3 15 elementary abelian group:E8 5 1

3-Sylow subgroups

Note that the 3-Sylow subgroup is isomorphic to cyclic group:Z3 in all cases. By the congruence condition on Sylow numbers as well as the divisibility condition on Sylow numbers, the only possibilities for the number of 3-Sylow subgroups is 1 or 4. In the former case, we have a normal Sylow subgroup. In the latter case, the normalizer of the Sylow subgroup has order 6, and is thus either cyclic group:Z6 or symmetric group:S3.
