DHCP + DNS

Hello,
Is there a way to force remote DHCPD servers to assign a different IP to
a client with the same MAC everytime dhclient -v is called? I've tried
to configure the following in /etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf file and set the
PATH_DHCLIENT_CONF=/etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf; in the current shell in an
attempt to
supersede dhcp-lease-time 5;
supersede dhcp-rebinding-time 5;
supersede dhcp-renewal-time 5;
Or for that matter, change settings on a DHCPD servers to ensure
everytime the same client VM requests an IP, it will be given a
different IP vs the previous one assigned?
I've a unique scenario where I would like to also check the local DNS to
determine if any offline hosts are already assigned to an IP and need to
cycle through a few to determine that.
Currently the DHCPD server servers the same IP or one of two IP's
regardless of how many times dhclient -v is called.
