This can also be done without \times or \scaleDurations in a 
"semantically correct" way (assuming that the length of a quarter note 
should remain unchanged):

\version "2.19.80"

\relative {
  \time 3/4
  a b c
  \set Score.measureLength = #(ly:make-moment 5 4)
  d c d c b
  a b c d e
  \set Score.measureLength = #(ly:make-moment 3 4)
  a b c
  d e c
}

Best
