Gerrit shows dependency information in the changes if you push them together, i.e. the 'later' changes show the changes they depend on in the dependencies section of the page. Gerrit never prevents that changes are (tried to be) submitted in a different order though, even with topic branches afaik. If you want to make sure that your reviewers are not confused (if you haven't talked to them already anyhow), you can add a comment about the dependency too.
