Seems that what you want can be done using ISC's DHCP client and BIND 
9.something.  When the client gets an address it updates its record in DNS.

This should work with your Win DHCP server, as long as you can run your 
own DNS.  I don't know if there's a way for linux boxen to update a Win 
DNS or Win boxen to update a linux DNS.

Here's some instructions to get you started.  It's dated, but it should 
at least give you an idea of the process.  And it may use more security 
than you need/want:
