Does dimension of a module (say, dimension of its support) have anything to do with the supremum length of chains of prime submodules like rings?
Let's restrict to finitely generated modules over Noetherian ring.
Prime submodules are defined analogously to primary submodules: a submodule P in M is prime if P$\neq$M and $M/P$ has no zero divisors, i.e. $am\in P$ implies $m\in P$ or $a \in \mbox{Ann}(M/P)$.

Let $R$ be an integral domain, then for the module $R^n$ its maximal length of chains of prime submodules is much larger than its dimension (for $n>>0$).
