No, only if productivity stagnates, which it never does. There's a total amount of wages on the one side and more and better products and services on the other. More wages and equal or less value produced == inflation.
Let's take that last sentence you typed. What happens if suddenly more value is produced? In order to keep inflation constant, wages have to go down. Otherwise you'd be able to buy more with the same wages.

1. Why would you produce more, if there is less ability to consume? 2. Anyway, prices would fall (even further) to clear the market. All in all: A bigger economy can sustain higher consumption. The more you make, the more you can have.
