I'm pretty sure this would work; we have done similar things at work:

               host oddbox {
                         hardware ethernet C8:3A:35:DC:54:59;
                         fixed-address 192.168.1.12;
                         option host-name "oddbox";
                 }
               host oddbox2 {
                         hardware ethernet 00:24:21:9A:6F:6C;
                         fixed-address 192.168.1.12;
                         option host-name "oddbox";
                 }

Two separate entries with different MACs and same fixed IP.

I do this as well so that laptops will get the same address whether they're using wifi or ethernet. And it actually doesn't matter if both interfaces are connected with the same address. Everything still works.
