"Kann sein." ist ein vollständiger Satz. Man gibt ihn meistens als Antwort auf eine Frage ("Stimmt XY?").
"Vielleicht" ist ein Adverb. Man kann damit auf die gleiche Frage antworten wie mit dem Satz "Kann sein.", aber man kann es auch als Teil eines Satzes verwenden:
"Vielleicht regnet es morgen."
"Zu meiner Geburtstagsfeier kommt vielleicht mein Freund aus Amerika. Aber nur, wenn er ein günstiges Flugticket findet."

@Carolus10 Im Deutschen ist man da noch etwas fauler als im Englischen „It's possible". Da wird das „It" einfach auch noch weggelassen, es ist sozusagen implizit.

@Carolus10 Das ist eine sogenannte Ellipse, ein Satz, bei dem man ein oder zwei Wörter auslässt, und der Hörer versteht trotzdem, was gemeint ist.
Hier ist das ausgelassene Wort "das":
"(Das) kann sein."
