i think you have to release the address, first... something so that the VM won't 
try to request the last address it had... if it requests a valid address that is 
not in current use, it will be allowed and accepted IIUC...

in the past we've renumbered the network addresses so the old numbers were not 
valid which forced the assignment of a new address which was the desired 
effect... when we renumbered the addresses, we basically just changed the 3rd 
octet...

eg: 192.168.0.*/24 -> 192.168.100.*/24

maybe you can do something similar to reach your desired objective?
