There have been quite a few queries on this list over the years asking 
essentially the same question you ask.
?
As I recall, there's any (easy) way to get ISC DHCPd to do this.
?
And for good reason - it's not in agreement with RFC's for DHCPd. ...Namely 
that clients should get the same IP back at renewal, and after expiration, the 
server should try to assign IP's in the following order;
1) IP's that have never been assigned
2) Reuse of least recently used to most recently used.
?
Forcing expiration of the lease without good cause it really bad practice. Any 
open sessions, when the ip is forced to expire and a new ip assigned will 
(generally) be abruptly terminated. This is not desirable.
?
IIRC, there's lots of other detail around the question - as well as some 
discussion about how to "force" the behavior you seek (even if ill advised.)
Might I suggest that you search the list and see if you can dig up those 
threads.?
?
They'd be useful (hopefully) in dissuading you from doing what you want to do, 
or in the case it doesn't, help you know how you might accomplish this, IMO, 
misguided task. :)

Wow. Terrible typo in the second line? My bad.
?
It should say...

As I recall, there's NOT any (easy) way to get ISC DHCPd to do this.
