You have Source address input under "Advanced" tab of the HTTP Request sampler where you can specify the source IP address for the request.

Source address

If you need to use multiple ones, you can put a JMeter Variable there and populate its value via i.e. CSV Data Set Config

Remember that the IP address must be either "real" IP address associated with the physical network card or a "virtual IP address", you cannot put a random arbitrary IP addres there.

See Using IP Spoofing to Simulate Requests from Different IP Addresses with JMeter guide for more detailed description, configuration instructions and demo.
