You can do this by creating a new array inside a Linq Select (I assume you want an object array since you have an int and string in there):

object[][] result = users.Select(user => new object[] { user.Id, user.Name }).ToArray();

If both columns are string, then the syntax is almost identical -- just replace both object[] with string[]:

string[][] result = users.Select(user => new string[] { user.Id, user.Name }).ToArray();
