Given the original spec, I would suggest something scripted with expect to telnet to the switch and change the parameters when you need them. You would then schedule it to run at the time interval you require.
There is nothing native on the switch that is going to do what you want, you will have to look at external tools.
If you want the PC to renew it's DHCP address every 5 minutes (when you change the VLAN it's connected to) then you'll also have to get your PC to drop it's IP and ask for a new one from DHCP at the same time.

Hi , Thank you all

I had EEM in my mind , but i assumed that the switch is Layer 2 switch 
the PC does not support dot1q trunk 
the goal is i want to test some WiMAX CPEs (which by default act as a DHCP server and provide the PC connected with access)

 , after 5 minutes i want the port the PC connecting to to change its VLAN in order to communicate with Server 2 which is connected to port F0/3 (which is on different VLAN)
