Sil's suggestion sounds good.
Personally I'd be getting a Ryanair flight from Porto to Madrid (3 flights a day at the moment) then a bus from there. Not environmentally friendly, I know. Ryanair is currently charging about 40 Euros plus baggage and other charges (so let's say 70), but early booking and the time of year is key. From Madrid airport you can get the bus to Astorga, which takes 5-6 hours.
That way you might have a chance of doing it in one day though, and avoid a night's accommodation cost. The train timetables seem to leave you somewhere you don't want to be in the middle of the night.
It will all depend upon your priorities of course. If you have a few days to spare you could make it a journey in itself and take in places like Salamanca on the way.
Buen Camino!

Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
You can find bus schedules here: Use Oporto for orgin.
