If I understand you correctly, you're speaking about dynamic DNS.  This is
possible in isc-dhcpd 3.0 with later versions of Bind 8 and all versions
of Bind 9.  Take a look at the bind documentation and the dhcpd.conf(5)
manpage.  The manpage has quite a bit of information on configuring DDNS
(including some named.conf examples).
