It's not common to ask yourself this question but grammatically speaking the answer could be should, shouldn't, would or wouldn't.

In your original post you listed the subject as tag question.
Now I would say, depending on the situation, that the possible answers could be:
I'd like to take tomorrow off, can I?
I'd like to take tomorrow off, could I?
I'd like to take tomorrow off, may I?
I'd like to take tomorrow off, should I?
