Could we get to earth-like planets?

Humans cannot get to any Earth-like planets, yet! as the distances are just too massive.

Once we're able to traverse at a fast enough velocity (IE, close to the speed of light) we will be able to cover those distances because time effectively 'slows down' the faster you travel.

How does the Kepler mission plan to detect Earthlike planets around other stars?

The Kepler mission used the transit method to detect Earthlike planets around other stars. It observed the slight dimming of a star's light when a planet passed in front of it, indicating the presence of an orbiting planet. By monitoring these periodic dips in brightness, Kepler could infer the presence of planets, including Earthlike ones, by analyzing the data over time.

How many planets like earth are there?

If by "like Earth" you mean habitable (that we could live on, without spacesuits, domes or other technological adaptations): there aren't any in our solar system, and none yet elsewhere that we know of. But scientists keep searching; the universe is a pretty big place, and odds are there are multiple other Earthlike planets out there somewhere.
