It sounds very good! I think that's a sentence that's very natural. However, 'someone' is very broad. You could narrow it down to "Can you/you all do me a favor, and boil the water for my black tea?".
If you want a shorter, easier, sentence, then "Can someone do me a favor, and boil the water for my tea?" would be good.
Over all, it's a great sentence.

@zzm112339 The overview of the grammar is right, but make sure to start with a capital letter rather than a lowercase letter to make it formal.
"Can someone do me a favor and boil the water for my black tea."
