Most ISPs assign IP addresses by MAC address. Seeing as you can't change the C6300's MAC address while it is operating in router mode, you won't be able to change your IP address.
You may be able to accomplish this by putting the C6300 into bridge mode. Go to ADVANCED > Administration > Router Mode and turn it off. Behind the C6300, connect a router that has the ability to change its MAC address. In theory, this should allow to you change your IP address. No guarantees. It all depends on your ISP.
