Yes, it works.
The DNS search suffix matters.
Thank you all!

Not quite.... This will only add a www record to your domain... What
I think the original poster wants is to use the DNS Seach suffix
functions of DHCP.
This will add the prefix automatically when the host tries to search
for a DNS entry...
$ cat /etc/resolv.conf
search example.com
nameserver x.x.x.x
nameserver x.x.x.x
This will get you the desired results. You set it in your dhcpd.conf
file as so:
option domain-name "example.com";
