No. What Chandler (and Hammett, who really started it) brought to it was realism (Hammett was a detective, a Pinkerton for several years and wrote using his experience). Not something like:

Agent Patriot - super-powered chameleon, reformed mob enforcer, war hero, convict framed for double murder - you must explore the gritty underworld of Dusk

Which is purely comic book.
What they wrote about - political and police corruption, organized crime, etc is the real world.
