Depends on your meaning. If you mean that midnight is the very latest that you will arrive, then say "I can get there by midnight." If you mean that you can stay there no later than midnight, then say "I can stay there until midnight."

Neither really works. If you are trying to say you can get somewhere at or before midnight; you would say "I can get there by midnight." If you're trying to say you can be somewhere until midnight, you would say "I can stay until midnight."
Or maybe I'm guessing incorrectly and you're trying to say something else altogether.

It depends if you are talking about staying UNTIL midnight or arriving BY midnight.

They have two completely different meanings
1. I can travel there before midnight
2. the period of time in which I can arrive or remain extends until midnight

If you can go there BY midnight that means you will be available to go by midnight whereas; if you can go there UNTILL midnight it means you can only STAY there untill midnight.
At least that's my read. Mind that curfew!

It depends the content in which you use it, but they are both correct.
