DHCP and DNS ... can't we just get along?

Is there a way, when all of us have our Linux boxen at Bandersnatch for
the Stammtisch, for us to somehow make DNS aware of the DHCP-allocated
addresses for each other?

In other words, just because our IP's are from DHCP, isn't there some way
to make DNS read WINS (or something... anything!) so we can 'ping' each
other by name? Or more importantly, connect to each other BY HOST NAME
for multiplayer games?
