Possum et volo.

Note that this isn't an exact translation, because, unlike English, Latin indicates the future tense by adding a suffix to the verb (amo "I love", amabo "I will love"). There is no separate future tense marker that can stand on its own like English "will". Volo is "I will" in the sense of "I want, I wish". English "will" is actually from the same source (the Proto-Indo-European root *wel-), but it has largely lost the sense of wishing. Not entirely, though; "I can and I will" can still imply "I am able [to do something] and I insist [on doing it]".
