"Assim que" is the correct translation.
For the example: "Posso sair?" "Assim que você limpar o seu quarto."
Another way to say this is "Tão logo", as it's a synonym of the expression above, but the construction should be a little different: "Tão logo limpe o seu quarto..."
You can google "Assim que" and "Tão logo" for more examples.
Hope it helps.

( Family members, close friends, girlfriend )
Posso ir?
Só quando tu/você limpar seu quarto.
( Friends )
Informal situations:
Posso ir embora? ( "Posso i'mbora?" )
Depois que tu/você limpar o seu quarto.
( Strangers, Bosses )
Formal situations:
Posso retirar-me?
Poderá se retirar somente se limpar o seu quarto.
In Portuguese it sounds like a threat rather than a farewell.
