I guess that will work if you have enough money to buy 100% additional hardware, and there won’t be any physical connection between the two networks (if there is, then you run the same danger).  However, deploying QoS would be significantly cheaper.

Another option might be to put your voice traffic on a totally separate switching infrastructure from your data traffic.
This will stop nasty big data packets from impinging on your call quality.
Of course this isn't going to be a solution for everyone as everyone's network design is different.
