Of course, varsity fees will be higher than subvarsity fees. This is not up for debate. The big discussion point is should 2P and 3P fees be the same within each level (varsity 2P vs 3P, subvarsity 2P vs 3P).

Realistically, I would say no, because schools might not be willing to add an official if the 2P and 3P cost per official was the same. This is why MIAA, FHSAA, and other states that have both 2P and 3P crews for varsity contests (FL does 3P anyway, even in 2P areas, because the state association requires 5 varsity home games in each gender to use a 3P crew during the season) have a difference between per-official fees for a 2P and 3P crew at the same level. Ideally, every state would use 3P at the varsity level (if not at the subvarsity levels), so this should not be a conversation, but we have to fight from the position that we are in in the world that we are in.

As to the OP, I would say HELL NO. If you seriously proposed that to any varsity official, they would start foaming at the mouth :-P and explaining why 3P is good.
