Good news to everyone. Finely i found a way to use several IP on different MAC on only one NIC. I tried:

* multimac
* macvlan #ip link add link eth0 name vmaclan0 address 00:aa:bb:cc:dd:dd type macvlan

but no one of them gave exactly what i wanted. So after break I started to look again and I found macvlan updates starting from 2.6.33 kernel [ source ]. I downloaded kernel source code from Proxmox but seems it still not patched. Later I will try to patch kernel to 2.6.32-4-pve state and then to apply macvlan patch. I do not have good experience with it so if Proxmox team have a free time to help me with it I will be very pleased.
 
* multimac doesnt work with iptables (can not redirect or change port destination and so on)
* old macvlan run in private mode so it can not be 'seen' by others local networks IP

Yes. I know - but what are the advantages (compared to a bridge)?
 
You can create virtual nic with its own mac address and use to get IP address by dhclient in host (not inside VPS) My ISP gives IP ONLY by dhcp.
