Kittixay1.A: Could you possibly lend me some money, please? Could you please lend me some money? - would be more natural.
B: I am not sure whether I can lend you any money. I may not have enough money to lend you. It's not clear if you mean you can't spare any, or if you don't have as much as he/she wants.

2.A: I can't find my bag anywhere.
B: You may have left it somewhere in the supermarket that we have just left. It would be more natural to say, "supermarket we just left."

3.A: I wonder why John was in such a bad mood yesterday.
B: He may have been feeling unwell. "Unwell" is rare. "He may not have been feeling well," is more natural.

4.A: Have you had any plans where to go on the Lao New Year's days yet? Tradition would determine whether "days" should be capitalized. Plans are sort of eternal. "Do you have any plans" or "Have you had any ideas/thoughts" [optional] on/about where to go - Do you have . . . ., and skip the "yet"
B: I may go to Thailand.
