The Greek myths were stories told by the Ancient Greeks made to explain strange events, things in nature, and basically everythingon the Earth. The Greek myths weren't written down until writing in Greece was actually develpoed, and before that, the myths were all told by mouth. That is why there are many different versions of the myths. In books telling about Greek myths, the myths may be written down, but usually not every single Greek myth is in one book, as there are lots of them. I do not think one Ancient Greek man could have known or told every single myth either.

Can anyone name all the greek myths and has anyone ever wrote a book of every greek myth?
This is two questions, but both are answered the same way: no, and no. It is nearly impossible to name all the Greek myths because the myths don't have names or "titles", thus it is hard to separate them one from another as they were not intended to be "chapters" in a book. If so there would be at least three versions for every myth, including little changes and notes.
