I am a university student. The university allots static IPs to interfaces. I am working on a machine with interface eth0 : 112.112.13.1 and it has an alias eth0:0 112.112.13.109. Both have the same hw address ofcourse. Now I configured a tap interface and gave it the same MAC. I used dhclient to allot it an IP address and it got 112.112.13.109. Can DHCP be configured to do this kind of stuff?

Strictly speaking it doesn't: How to request DHCP using dhclient on a virtual interface. – kce Jan 16 at 1:47
