We can't help you without the full sentence and context.
"might even be able to" means "possibility," it's the epistemic use of that construction. Reading what you wrote, I would conclude that "might even be able to" refers to "Maybe clean the kitchen too." If "might even be able to" really refers to everything within a certain period of time, I would say something like,
I can still do laundry after all. Maybe clean the kitchen too. If I plan properly, I might even be able to do everything/both/etc./today/this morning/etc./
The adverb even is not relevant to the main construction.
Might is a modal verb, and modal verbs are always followed by an infinitive form of a main verb (e.g. should go, could have happened, will be waiting).
If I’m quick, I might finish all my work before it gets dark.
But in your example, what follows the modal is a phrasal verb — [to] be able to – which also takes an infinitive (both to’s are infinitive markers, rather than prepositions).
I might be able to finish all my work before it gets dark.
