Why do you want to do so?

What is probably happening is that you're being allocated a second IP on the 
same subnet, which isn't permitted because it isn't useful.  You might be able 
to convince dhclient to override the netmask for the second IP, in much the 
same fashion as "ifconfig xxx alias" works.
