Real Madrid have already proven that kind of business model doesn't bring success. You may get a few trophies along the way but eventually the team ethic becomes the overriding factor and it is very hard to keep expensive players on the bench and happy without unsettling the squad and overall balance of the team. It is short term soultion that doesn't actually bring long term succees.
I don't think that you can count Portsmouth, Villa, Newcastle etc as sugar daddies either though. Otherwise even Wigan, Man Utd, Reading, Fulham have them. The difference between them and Abrahmovic is that they all want a return on their investment and do actually care about profit. Abrahmovic is the only one who really has a bottomless pit and so profit is not a factor, only success is. The other clubs have to balance the books somehow at the end of the fiscal year otherwise after a few years of being in the red the clubs would have to go into administration. Chelsea can always top up their losses from other sources so do not need to worry about that.

So to answer your question, no this won't create a 2-tier Premiership, unless you count Chelsea as their own tier with everyone else in the second tier. Teams like Liverpool and Man Utd in England and Barcalona in Europe have proved, by beating Chelsea on a number of occasions, that they are not invincible no matter how much money they spend. They can only send 11 men on the pitch and football is team sport where there are no true underdogs.
