I would do it this way, but the result is incomprehensible:

IntegrateChangeVariables[
 Inactive[Integrate][
  f[x - \[Lambda]], {x, a + \[Lambda], b + \[Lambda]}],
 t, t == x - \[Lambda]]

What a strange result, indeed - maybe a bug? For case (b) the result is as expected:

Refine[IntegrateChangeVariables[
   Integrate[f[x/\[Lambda]], {x, a \[Lambda], b \[Lambda]}], t, t == x/\[Lambda]], \[Lambda] > 0] /. t -> x
