I don't have dhclient on my boxes, and the man page doesn't mention any options to help out. What I would do is use dhcpcd, which doesn't automatically overwrite /etc/resolv.conf, OR, edit the binary dhclient. vi -b works fine for this. Try :/resolve.conf and then change one letter in the name. Perhaps just use the ~ key to make one letter uppercase. Then: :wq should save your changes. Then, dhclient will not bother your /etc/resolv.conf file. If you try this, it is important to: 1. Backup up dhclient before you edit it. 2. Just change a letter, don't change the size of the file!
OR, you might try making /etc/resolv.conf read only.
